RANDOM GOSSIP.
After last Monday night
annif fnr fhn LEO nf mo

opera head-gear has been talked to de-
gree that would have been death to any
other subject, but, as the men can't, with
any degree of safety, lay violent hands
upon the hats and bonnets, they must con-
tinue TO talk. with the hope Ia forlorn one)
of ultimately firing their lady friends into
refOrm-or rather. out of bonnets. The
ladies who appeared at the Huntington
concert with uncovered heads looked so
comfortable. and it did not seem at all
strange, either. They were the cynosure of
masculine eyes, and l should think all the
ladies would find that of itself enough to
commend the sensible fashion.

ladies would find that of itself enough to
commend the sensible fashion.

Another very noticeable feature was the
unusual number of flowers worn-I may
nave mentioned this matter of flowers be-
fore. but gossip is seldom new-what is?-
and they were so pretty; the red and cream
and yellow roses frightened the dark
dresses wonderfully. But l wonder why
other flowers are not worn? OF course.
roses last well, and that is great point in
their favor, but lilies of the valley and
violets are so lovely, and they divide the
honors with roses in the East: for brunettes,
especially. for those ladies with black hair
and eyes. no flowers are more effective
than large clusters of scarlet geraniums,
especially when worn with dark dress.

The presents given at the CALDWELL Farm
ham wedding are splendid, and are almost
enough to tempt any bachelor to wed-and
in an equal degree have a like effect on
womankind. There is nothing which a
woman enjoys reading quite so much as an
account of Wedding-the minutest details
are delightful. It is a great pity that social
reporters are not compelled to serve an ap-
premiership at dresSmaklng so they would
be better fitted to describe wedding gowns.
For when a man tackles wedding gear his
feelings are pathetic.
~
He knows that of all things his lady
readers want correct idea of the bridal
robe. and when the elegant mass of 'ssilk
and trimmins" is laid before him it is not at
all unapt to compare him to the bnll in the
china closet. Now a woman would give
the gown casual glance, and year after
ward she would tell you the shape of the
train and its length, and whether it ''sei
welf'' or not. She would in an instant size
up the panierS and note the number of folds
inl the side widths; she could incidentally give
an idea of the cost of the laces, and would
make mental reservations concerning the
style and invidious comparisons with Other
dresses of similar nature; she would pay
particular attention to the corsage ano
would deftlY intimate to her readers
Just the exact degree of '1owness'' which
the neck thereof reached; she has a ire
mendeus advantage in such affairs. and 1t j:
a wonder that more women do not find en-
employment in such lines.
~
But ladies say that the very awkward
ness OF men when trying to describe gowns
is Que of their chief advantages; they &C
about it just as they would describe board
of trade meeting, or a first-class set-to, OIL
anything else that might demand their at
aention. They look at the bride. and say
what she had on. and if they don't know
tue latest word for the different parts OF
the dress. they ask the fair wearer. who.
being a bride. is of necessity gracious, and
titus they get fair and square, unadorned
descripton-not much poetry mixed up in
it, perhaps, and no little confectionery,
taken from their stock in trade, and so tits
done. and the readers Imagination displays
the real bride just as she appeared.

Speaking Of brides, there is to be another
wedding in high life this week. and rumoI

The charity ball. which was so well
patronized by the Jewish people. may well
be lesson to the liberal church neople of
the city. A great deal of fun has been
made of charity balls wherein hundreds of
dollars have been spent on arrangements,
leaving but little for the poor; but our
Hebrew citizens did not work it that wav.
and their party was very pretty and thor
oughly enjoyable. Winter is not over, far
from it, and the generously disposed society
people can be doubly happy if they Will;
they can dance with lighter hearts for the
cool their money is doing.

This corps has been upon the point oil
~disbanding, owing to tho aoa-atteadapce
OF its members, but there Jet seem to
be enough members who still have the
best interests of the corps at heart to
keep mp the organization. We hope
it will still flourish and it's membership
will increase. Tue wives OF members
of Phil Kearney post should consider il
their duty to become o member of til,
